Coronavirus 'harms the brain and systema nervosum of half of the severely unwell patients and a 3rd of all cases' — inflicting symptoms cherish unsteady, thick speech, and seizures

Coronavirus harms the brain and systema nervosum of half of the severely unwell patients, a study on patients with COVID-19 within the Chinese city of Wuhan has found.

Such impacts — that seem during a third of patients overall — cause symptoms together with headaches, stumbling, thick speech, nerve pain, and seizures.

The study — the first to characterize the brain issues related to coronavirus infection — suggests that these symptoms might indicate patients at a better risk.

In the study, specialist Bo Hu of the Huazhong University of Science and Technology and colleagues analyzed 214 patients with COVID-19 from Wuhan, China, the city wherever the occurrence emerged, between mid-January and mid-February.

The patients were all treated in one of 3 dedicated special care centers within the university's Union Hospital.

The specialists sorted neurologic symptoms into one of 3 categories, the primary of which was central systema nervosum manifestations — together with dizziness, headache, impaired consciousness, acute cerebrovascular disease, ataxia, and seizure.

'Overall, seventy-eight patients (36.4 percent) had neurological manifestations,' the researchers wrote in their paper.

'Compared with patients with non-severe infection, patients with severe infection were older, had more underlying disorders, particularly hypertension, and showed fewer typical symptoms of COVID-19, such as fever and cough,' they added.

'During the epidemic period of COVID-19, once seeing patients with neurological manifestations, clinicians ought to suspect severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus two infections as a medical diagnosis,' the researchers aforementioned.

This, they added, can avoid delayed identification or misdiagnosis and losing the chance to treat [the patients] and prevent additional transmission.'

The full findings of the study were published within the journal JAMA Neurology.
